KAYAI watched her as she walked away, not knowing what exactly to say.My head cleared and I just stood there, replaying her words in my head. Had I heard right?She was behind the attack. Tears gathered in my eyes and I wondered if I should go after her and ask her to explain herself.Why did she have to go that far just to get back at me?Why did she have to do that?If she wanted to kill me, she could have just come up to me and done it without having to put Milo's life at risk. What if something had happened to him?What if Adrian hadn't come there in time and I had no place to go?Tears fell from my eyes and I slowly made my way upstairs to my room. I wanted to be alone for now, training could wait.If anyone should ask me why I was crying, I wouldn't know what to tell them so it was best that I just went to my room.As I climbed the stairs, I bumped into someone again. What the hell was with me and bumping into people today?Since my head was bent down as I didn't want them to
THIRD PERSON POVThey had all received the memo. It had come personally to them in a letter.Normally, to inform them of meetings, the Grandmaster appeared in their dreams which was what they were used to.But this time around, it had come in a letter.Meet at the Holy Ground. Speak of it to no one else.It had seemed like a secret meeting for each of them but it wasn't . The shock in their faces was very evident when they showed up and saw their brothers there.But still, they had been told to speak to no one so all they could do was just sit and wait for their Grandmaster to arrive.In a puff of smoke, he was seated in his chair.“I'm sure all of you would be wondering the aim of this meeting and why you were all told especially. Well, we have something important to discuss today and I want to make sure that the topic of today's discussion was not present.”Hearing this, they all looked around, wondering who had not attended the meeting.Comrade Hank.“Yes, we have gathered today to
KAYAPractice ended earlier today. Nora looked so tired so she let us go an hour before the usual time.As we walked out, I just hoped that Adrian won't come in and tell them to practice.I went back to my room to take a shower and get breakfast. I was so hungry because I had skipped dinner last night.Adrian and I had gone for a walk and it lasted till one in the morning. By the time we got back, the maids had gone to sleep and we were the only ones walking around the house like thieves.I just decided to go to bed while Adrian said he had some work to catch up on.The doctor for Milo's speech classes was coming by today and he was nervous. He didn't want a repeat of what happened the last time.He didn't want Milo to become scared of the doctor because he could see that the doctor could actually help him.I really looked forward to hearing his voice one day so I assured him that I'll be there with Milo when the doctor comes.I felt good that Milo felt more at ease when I was around.
KAYA“Hi Mrs Norton.” Nora knocked on the front door.When there was no answer she turned to me.“She has OCD so things are done a bit differently."“Isn't that like being obsessed with cleaning or things like that?"She shook her head.“No, it means this.”She raised her hand to knock again.“Hi Mrs Norton."And again.“Hi Mrs Norton.”The door suddenly opened and an elderly woman stood in the doorway. Her bright orange hair caught my eyes first, contrastes by her beautiful green eyes.“Beta, I've been expecting you. Do come in."As she walked away, Nora gave me the explanation I'd been waiting for.“Things have to be done in threes or else, she feels bad things would happen.”Wow, that was… something.We entered the house and I was blown away. The first thing I noticed was how everything was grouped in threes.Three chairs. Three flower pots. Three pictures on the wall.She came from the kitchen, holding a tray that held coffee and biscuits for us. They smelled freshly baked.“Who’s
KAYANora left us behind, walking ahead while Luke and I walked behind.“Your friend calls you Kay, though. Why won't you let me call you that?”I didn't want to tell him that it was because we weren't friends yet but after thinking about it and coming up with no other tangible reason, I had to tell him that.“I just met you today and we're not friends yet. I can't exactly give you such liberty yet.”That fully, he didn't push it and we walked like that in silence until we got home.“This is the Alpha's house. Do you work here?"I laughed lightly and shook my head.“No, I live here.”“Really? Are you his sister?"Far from it. What exactly am I?“I’m his friend.”That seemed to work. I hadn't exactly thought about it before.“What about her? Is she his friend too?”To answer his question, a few guards walked past us and greeted us.“Good day Beta. Good day Luna."My mouth dropped. What the hell was going on? Since when did they address me as Luna?“T-that's not me. I'm not the Luna.”H
ADRIANI was in my office when the guard knocked and walked in without waiting for a response.I was steady to give him a stern reprimanding.“Alpha, the doctor is here.”I dropped what I was doing immediately and rushed upstairs. Milo was very terrified of the doctor that as soon as he saw him, he would start crying.Thankfully, I met him at the stairs and stopped him just in time.“Hey doc. How about I go see him first before you see him?”He nodded and I entered Milo's room. He ran to me and I picked him up.“Hey, big boy. Uh, you know I told you the doctor was coming over right? He's here now.”I said his mood dropped but he quickly nodded and signed okay.That was my son, such a strong boy.I went back to the door to tell the doctor to come in.He stood at the door first.“Hello Milo."Milo gave him a small wave.“Can I see that?" He pointed to Milo's favorite toy train.To this day, I don't know why he likes that train the most but I remember the day it got lost under his bed. I
KAYAI couldn't blame him for the way he'd reacted. I'd messed up.I should have known better than to leave the house when I knew Milo would need me.It had been five days since Adrian said those words to me and I couldn't get them out of my mind.It was like he was right in front of me, repeating them over and over again when I wanted to forget them.I felt so bad about what happened that I kept apologizing to Milo when he came to look for him. I couldn't go to his room for fear that Adrian would catch me there and he wouldn't be happy about it.Nora said she'd speak to him but I didn't want her to. It would seem like I'd sent her to him and I didn't want any more trouble than I had already gotten.All I did was go for practice and come back into my room and stay locked up all day.To make matters worse, I'd been in my room when I'd heard a knock.I knew Milo didn't knock, he just entered like he owned the room which I was fine with so I'd hoped that it was Adrian.My mood dropped wh
THIRD PERSON POVThey needed to find the special wolf before the next full moon which would be in three weeks.If they didn't at least know where she was, then they would be doomed. The window of opportunity was open for them, they just had to use it properly.The Grandmaster had called a meeting that night to inform them that they all had to sacrifice something for them to successfully locate where the wolf was.They didn't actually have to sacrifice anything. Since they joined the brotherhood, they had been giving up something they loved or having to do something they didn't want to do.It was all in his bid to live long. He hadn't been told beforehand that the Grandmaster had to make sacrifices over and over to keep his position.If he could make them, then he would be killed but he couldn't do that. He knew his father had killed his mother to keep his position.How could he not know?He had been there that night. He had been the one to bring the knife.He didn't want to kill his m
KAYAIt had been a week since I came back. Of course, everyone at the pack had seen me and Milo especially was happy.At one point, I thought Nora was the one who missed me the most. It felt so good to be back somewhere that I was appreciated.I didn't feel like an outcast anymore.I'd seen everyone except my arch nemesis. It crossed my mind that I hadn't yet seen her and maybe I shouldn't have thought about that because as soon as I did, our eyes met as she was coming down the stairs and I was sitting in the living room.She looked very surprised and it was obvious that she wasn't expecting me back. She didn't think that I was going to be back of course but I was.I was back and I was here to say.She came down from the stairs and slowly made her way to me.“Nice to see you again.” I greeted her with a smile.”What are you doing here? Does Adrian know you're here? Get out before I call the guards to throw you out.”I laughed and got up from my seat.“Naya , I have to admit. It was a
KAYA“So what exactly happened after that? Why did the cult position have to be passed down? I mean why couldn't it just be given to someone else?”“Because of the blood that was passed. At the initiation and renewal of their vows to the cult, each of the brothers dropped their blood into a cup and they each drank from it. That covenant that they shared is what hindered them from doing so.”All this was sounding deeper than it was and I just stayed, watching like I didn't understand what was going on.“Okay so if I had a blood tie with one of the members of the cult, why did she choose me to become the special wolf? It doesn't make any sense.”There was nothing that made sense about all this.Claudia spoke up.“She wanted to break the bond. She knew that your father had only two girls and she knew that the cult didn't allow women in so she decided to use this chance to come as the special wolf. Everything that happened was for a reason. Your mother's death, Your father's hatred for yo
KAYAWho knew living with witches could be this fun?I woke up in the morning and there was already food on my table. Everything I needed was at my neck and calm and at first, I felt weird about it but now that I've been here for a week, I'm totally enjoying it.Something happened these past few days though. During the night of the full Moon, I hadn't been let out at all throughout the day.Then at night, the witches came to me.“It is time..”My eyes widened as I heard them say that. What did they mean? Were they going to kill me now that they had finally fed me and I was almost as far as a cow?I didn't even want to ask but I had to know..“What do you mean?”“Tonight is the night they plan to take you. So we will be here with you. No matter what they do, they won't get to you.”I didn't understand what they were trying to say.“Wait, who's that? Who are the people coming after me?"“The Cult. It's the night of the Full Moon and you are the prime target so we will stay with you and
THIRD PERSON POVIt was the day of the Full Moon.The Grandmaster woke up early.Actually, he hadn't been able to sleep at all because he knew that he was one step closer to the grave. In fact, he was already inside it and it was just to cover him up that was left.It was already the day that was his deadline and he hadn't found her yet. He thought he was going to but her wolf hasn't showed up in his radar again and it bothered him.Other special wolves didn't give him headaches like this. Most of the time, before the full moon, they always showed up because their wolf was too eager to come out..But not this one. This one has been very careful right from the start and if not for that chance that they had gotten, they would never have found her at all.He didn't want to say it out loud but he might as well accept defeat. He didn't want to tell his brothers yet but it was the truth.In just a couple of hours, the sun would go down and the moon would come up.That was the time they wer
THIRD PERSON POVHank was in a tight situation.Staying up all night to think about how in earth he was going to kill Adrian was taking a toll on him and he couldn't take it any more..He had thought about every way that he could but it wasn't working out. Everything he thought about always ended with him being dead and he couldn't let that happen.He had been thinking about how he would get to Stacy that had been captured by Alpha Adrian. Right now, she was the only one that could help him in this time.But there was no way.There was going to be a meeting tonight because the full moon was tomorrow and for the first time since he joined the Cult, he didn't want to attend a meeting..He knew that they were going to talk about it and it scared him. He has been the one to say that he would be able to kill Adrian but now, he was having issues with it.He didn't have the appetite for food and he couldn't sleep either. With his eyes wide opened, he wondered if he should really give up the
ADRIANThe doctor finally let me take Milo home the week after. It was beginning to seem like he didn't want me to take him home at all.He kept telling me to come back and finally, I was able to take him home today.He said his throat would take a couple of months to heal which was fine. I knew the extent to which the injury had gone.I was just happy that he was finally coming home today.He however, wasn't happy. I tried to get him to speak to me but he had refused to.When I entered his room this morning, he didn't speak to me and he didn't smile either. So I knew something was wrong, I just didn't know what.I tried speaking to him in the car but he still didn't budge.So I gave it to you and decided to leave it till we got home. There, I would have a better chance of speaking to him.Eventually, we did get home and he got down from the car . I offered to help him get down but he didn't even look at me and he got down himself.Nora came out and he gave her a hug and let her carry
THIRD PERSON POVThey had agreed to meet up outside the house.She couldn't let them be seen together after what had happened. Even worse, she couldn't let her come to the house after what had happened.To her, it was a mission that had been successful and she was so happy with the outcome..For the first time, she had won over Kaya and she couldn't be happier. She knew that that plan of hers was a genius one because it would sure get them what they wanted.She had made Belle tell the baker to add a lot of chocolate chip, chocolate essence, flavoring and a very thin layer of chocolate with bits in it. She wanted to make sure that Milo didn't survive it.Yes, her plan had been to kill him. She wanted to make sure that Adrian hated Kaya so much that he would want her dead.Emma was already there waiting for her when she got there. As soon as she gave Kaya the cake, she packed up her bags and dropped a resignation letter on the kitchen table and ran out through the back door.She knew th
KAYAWhen I woke up, the sun's rays were pouring into the window and directly into my eyes.It was so hot and I was so damn sure that the rain that had made me come with these women didn't end up falling.I sat up on the bed and thought about my life for a moment before getting up to use the bathroomIt took me a moment to realize that I had been waiting for Milo to run into the room.As I took my shower, I wondered what they wanted to speak to me about. They said they weren't weird but that was what they always said before they stuffed you in a lot and cooked while singing the song about the cauldron.I'd read too many books as a child and it was messing with my head.Since I had let my imagination run wild last night and ended up ruining my own appetite, my stomach was already rumbling by the time I came out of the bathroom.I put on my clothes and made my way out, not exactly knowing where I was going. Since it was day, I could see things clearly now..It didn't seem as scary as i
ADRIANI woke up very early the next day and got ready. I needed to see Milo today at the hospital.Without even thinking about breakfast, I ran out of the house and got into my car, driving straight for the hospital.He had never had a surgery before and I wanted to ask the doctor how soon his throat could heal because I didn't want to believe that my son would never speak again.They'd told me that some years ago and he had proved them wrong by speaking to me that nightmare so this time around, I knew he was going to prove them wrong again and he was going to speak.I just didn't know when.I didn't know his room number so I stopped at the reception to ask.“Good morning, Alpha. What may I help you with?”“My son's room number. Tell me where he is.”She looked through a computer and raised her head up.“He’s in the children's section. Two floors up, room 32B.”I made my way upstairs, holding his toy train in my hand and also a picture of his mother. As much as I wanted to hate her,
